专辑简介
Alfred Schnittke's extraordinary--and now legendary--compositional adroitness is brilliantly displayed in the two pieces on this new Chandos release. The Cello Concerto No. 2 (1990) contains some of this (or any) century's most difficult writing for the instrument. (Indeed, it's almost as if Schnittke wants to see just how far he can push the cello as an instrument.) The soloist here is Alexander Ivashkin, whose ability to traverse this demanding landscape mirrors that of Mstislav Rostropovich, the only other performance of the concerto in print worth mentioning. The Chandos ambiance--also legendary--has never sounded more full-bodied and expressive. It clearly supersedes the Sony recording. Schnittke fans will also like the satirical (K)ein Sommernachtstraum--or (Not) A Midsummer Night's Dream--of 1985, a kitschy masterpiece. --Paul Cook
